    DeMyer's Laws - an argument that consists primarily of rambling quotes isn't worth bothering with.

    1984 CBX750 is hardly a classic (and never will be).

    That's true, but this one's a classic in my book...

    The bank might hiccup - but they'd be OK ... the wife would probably leave ...

    Confused by the Goldie. Has the clubmans headlight brackets but no clip ons....has the bars on the top yoke clamps, wh hi means it would normally have the pressed steel headlight mounts wouldn't it?

    the Vincent is described as Excellent condition.
    here's what i could see that wasn't right from the piccies. buyer beware.
    later model carbies,
    d series hand operated centre stand
    wrong size front wheel, should be 20 inch front and 19 rear, later they changed to 18 rear and 19 front (it’s got a metzeler laser which you can’t get in 20 inch)
    rev counter added
    incorrect dynamo, should be miller, maybe it’s a chinamo aftermarket upgrade
    stainless guards, originals were alloy, birmabright, same alloy as landrover bodies
    not matching numbers, i’d ask webbs for the two frame numbers, out of curiosity, let them sweat finding them
    elephant trunk breather fitted to crankcases, ugly, not the answer for a well tuned bike, although it was the fad for a while to solve them breathing elsewhere.
    external coils mounted on left of bike, means mag either missing or just being used as points to operate coils, ugly and not needed in this day and age. coils mounted right below fuel tap---good for fires.
    mixture of alloy and stainless tommy bars on magneto cover, not attention to detail here
    odd fuel tap i’ve never seen before
    several extra holes in at least one footpeg plate, probably for luggage rack at one stage, not standard
    incorrect dip switch
    modern cables with product details in writing on them

    This bunch of wally's just don't do their homework very well. I'm not a Triumph guy but that 1921 SD550 they have on their auction site which they claim to be a "Riccy" four valve (OHV) certainly appears to have only TWO SIDE VALVES.
